What happened to Star Trek Magazine

Yeah, I kinda hope they do one more collection, as my "Attempted Break-In" and "The Sirius Snarl" have yet to be reprinted.....
 
I purchased the last 8 issues on digital through Pocketmags because of all the stories from authors like David Mack & KRAD. Went to open one up today and found that they’re all gone. There are No Trek magazines listed on Pocketmags at all now. Checked out the Titan site directly & I see they’re only offering hard copies of the magazine so all the fiction and other stories that were only digital are now gone? Can’t find any digital copies anywhere or any explanation of what happened but I’m wondering if this is tariff related?

I can still see the issues I purchased (1-14) in the website/desktop version of Pocketmags. They're no longer visible in the app. Time to email Pocketmags...
 
Pocketmags support has not been helpful. They want a screenshot — which only shows the issue of Star Wars Insider they gave me to “make up” for issues of STE they never published, but I paid for. They want me to uninstall and reinstall the app. Did nothing. They want me to update iOS. Which is already on the latest. Now I’m waiting for their next unhelpful suggestion.

Since I can see the issues in the website but not in the app, I assume they flipped some switch. My worry is that “fixing the glitch” will mean stealing purchased issues I already bought from the web interface, rather than restoring them to the app.

I’m running into the same issue with them. And I can still see the issues I bought on the general laptop website. So I accessed that through Safari on my phone and after logging in I can see & read all the issues I bought, still not through the app but through the website on safari.

I'm still going back and forth with Pocketmags support. It's now been escalated to the dev team, after trading emails every day for a week. I'll post if anything ever happens.

ETA: And yesterday they fixed it so my issues are back in the app. Now I can read them someday…
